Every leaf has a slightly different pattern, so the plant looks wonderfully chaotic up close. A fancy-leaf caladium with an upright habit, it makes a bold indoor plant through the warmer months, and it’s a fun talking point too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy You’ll Love It ✔️\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e✔️ Wild, tie-dye foliage – Lime and dark green splashes swirl together across each leaf to create a vibrant, one-of-a-kind pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e✔️ Big leaves, easy display – Its large, wide-open leaves make an impact on their own or in a group, growing to around 50–55 cm tall in good conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e✔️ Tougher than it looks – Unlike many caladiums, ‘Frog in a Blender’ is known for tolerating brighter light. It also offers striking pattern without relying on pink or red tones, which makes it a fresh, green alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Tips\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e🌞 Light: Bright indirect light gives the best pattern and sturdy growth. It handles more light than many caladiums, and gentle morning sun is fine, but protect it from harsh afternoon sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e💧 Water: Keep the mix evenly moist during active growth and water when the top couple of centimetres begin to dry. Don’t let it dry out completely, but avoid soggy mix, which can rot the tuber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e💦 Humidity: It prefers 60% humidity or higher. A humidifier helps prevent crispy leaf edges, especially in air-conditioned rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e🌡 Temperature: 20–30°C is ideal. It is very sensitive to cold, so keep it above 18°C. As temperatures drop in autumn, caladiums naturally go dormant and the leaves die back. Reduce watering, keep the tuber dry and warm over winter, and new leaves will return in spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e🌱 Soil: Use a well-draining mix of coco coir, coco chip \u0026amp; perlite that holds some moisture without becoming waterlogged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e🌿 Fertiliser: Controlled-release fertiliser is already added to the potting mix. During spring and summer, add a balanced liquid fertiliser at half strength every few weeks. Stop feeding once the plant begins to go dormant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e🚫 Toxicity: Toxic to pets and people if chewed or eaten. Caladiums contain calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth and throat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlso known as:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caladium × hortulanum ‘Frog in a Blender’, Angel Wings, Elephant Ears, Heart of Jesus\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePerfect for anyone who likes their foliage plants with a bit of personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA note on Caladiums:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caladiums vary naturally in colour, pattern, leaf size and shape. Even plants of the same variety can look quite different from one another, and from leaf to leaf on the same plant. Please treat our product images as a guide only. Caladiums are tropical plants and need consistently warm temperatures above 18°C to keep actively growing. When temperatures drop below this, they naturally go dormant and their leaves die back. This is a normal part of their growth cycle and doesn’t mean the plant has died. The tuber rests underground, and new leaves return when warm conditions come back.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Uprooted","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68227083469035,"sku":"CALADIUM-FROG-IN-A-BLENDER","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/1455\/8287\/files\/E43ED888-37F8-4A99-B9D5-2B39C4E55280_1_105_c_9a4580d9-1c10-4c35-934b-d36d09cee6fd.jpg?v=1792650992","url":"https:\/\/www.uprooted.com.au\/products\/caladium-bicolor-frog-in-a-blender","provider":"Uprooted","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
